Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been sacked.

The Blues board held discussions over the troubled Portuguese manager’s future concluding the man’s contract-termination this afternoon.
He was fired seven months after he led them to the Premier League title.
Mourinho was pushed out by a ninth Premier League defeat of the season against Leicester City.
Jose Mourinho’s troubled relationship with Eden Hazard was one of many internal disputes said to be harming Chelsea.
Top targets Pep Guardiola, Diego Simeone and Antonio Conte are not available until the summer, with Guardiola also being pursued by Manchester City. Less ambitious permanent options include the Southampton manager Ronald Koeman and Sevilla’s Unai Emery.
That leaves Chelsea also looking at alternative options, like former manager Carlo Ancelotti, or an experienced caretaker appointment such as Guus Hiddink, also a former Chelsea manager.
Ancelotti is the most attractive out-of-work manager, but the Italian has stated that he does not want to take a new job midseason and is interested in both the Bayern Munich and Manchester United jobs that could become available in the summer.
Hiddink has hinted that he would be interested in replacing Mourinho until the end of the season in what would be a similar scenario to when the Dutchman, 69, last took caretaker charge of Chelsea in February 2009 and finished the season as an FA Cup winner.
Abramovich had before attempted to stand by Mourinho and ride out the current storm, but growing concern ruled at the end of the day that the 52-year-old is no longer suitable.
